Donato Joseph Marinari Donatomarinari@gmail.com 908-507-0895 After serving for several years as President & CEO for Verizon Directory Services, I felt I had accomplished all there was of a career that was both successful and rewarding. After spearheading the merger of Bell Atlantic, NYNEX and GTE I was approached by a Private Equity firm with an offer to participate in both current and future investments on the basis of reversing negative trends from certain investments along with completing due diligence on investments of interest. The opportunity to move in a new direction was appealing to me and as such, I accepted the offer which gave me the opportunity to use my experience over a wide range of industries. Along the way, my entrepreneurial spirit became the catalyst for pursuing an opportunity in the publishing sector where I became the founder of a magazine that would be positioned as a national franchise. It was a product that combined print and electronic content and a major step in the direction of educating a base of small and medium sized businesses on the advantages of social media. Ultimately, with a broader background I realized that my experience as a consultant who became involved with start-ups, turnarounds, change management, mergers and acquisitions and a record of consistent growth, I have become drawn to where I believe I can become most effective. I am currently seeking an opportunity within an interactive environment where I can join with others who are committed to an innovative culture where accountability is a priority. To that end, I am seeking a position that allows me to participate on a full time basis where I can bring experience from a diverse group of industries and a mature voice that has effectively communicated at the highest levels. As such, I would like the opportunity to speak with you about potential employment possibilities where I can be viewed as someone who brings added value to areas that pose significant challenge and a commitment to bringing a company to the next level.
